* All teachers are to be evaluated every 5 years, except for teachers new to the profession, who are evaluated twice to receive “notation” as a permanent teacher, before entering the appraisal cycle of teachers not designated as “new”.

Astute principals will already have been in your classroom several times during regular, informal “walk-abouts” or “walk-throughs” and already have a good idea of how you teach and how effective you are.

This process provides Principals with 163 things to look for during your evaluation. These are called “look-fors”.

For “new” teachers, the focus is on 8 performance expectations and 45 “look fors”, most relevant to a beginning teacher; however, principals may assess additional expectations at their discretion.

- a teacher who has not yet successfully completed the New Teacher Induction Program by having two “successful” evaluations OR when 24 months has elapsed since first being hired to the Board ( some ability to extend the 24 months is allowed in the regulation governing NTIP)
